Owner returns to Health 2000

Wanaka, New Zealand – it’s a case of second times a charm for local Health 2000 owner and naturopath 29-year-old Nikki Sumner who takes ownership of the Wanaka store for the second time this month.

Nikki first bought the store in 2008, but decided to sell it three years later in order to pursue her dream of becoming a naturopath.

Three years later, Nikki is now an internationally qualified naturopath, medical herbalist and nutritionist and has recently launched Fusion Natural Health Clinic within the Health 2000 store on Helwick Street.

Nikki says when the opportunity to re-purchase the Health 2000 store arose a few months ago it was too good an opportunity to pass up.

“The timing was perfect! I launched the clinic within Health 2000 because I had a connection with the owner at the time. It felt great to be back in there and when the opportunity to buy came up – I jumped at it.”

Nikki says she is hugely passionate about women’s health and hormonal imbalance and has had great success in treating a variety of health conditions from autoimmune conditions and digestive issues through to stress and fatigue.

“I’m interested in finding out the root cause of ill health or disease and I’m genuinely against fad diets and latest crazes. When looking at someone’s diet, what works for one might not be the best option for the next.”

According to Nikki, Wanaka is the perfect place to be a naturopath because its residents tend to prioritise keeping their bodies at optimum health.

“That’s what I’m all about – helping people to achieve complete wellness so they can live a happy, healthy and balanced life. We have wonderful organic and health food stores and a beautiful backyard to get out and enjoy here in Wanaka. We’re very lucky.”
